Aussie game charts: January 18-24

Mmmmm Mario Kart Wii STILL selling well

@ Humorguy_basic As an Aussie and PC Gamer, every fellow PC gamer I know buys games on steam/ebay/Import. No one buys them from the shops counted in these rankings.

Good to see Nintendo doing well.

Re: The PC charts - take out all the SIms and WoW games/expansions from the chart - then take out the 2005 Age of Empires III (what's that all about!) and what have you got? One game: Modern Warfare 2. Is this the state of PC gaming in Australia? The Sims, WoW and 5 year old games?! As a 20 year plus PC gamer, I am sad. Very sad.

they sure like the wii

hmmmm AVATAR :P

The World of Aus Gaming according to the Censor 10. World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade "I'm hyperventerlating!..I'M HYPERVENTILATING!!!

I saw avatar got some really poor reviews? Anyone played it?

avatar is higher than uncharted 2 XD what are the aussies doing!!

lol @ australia

Avatar the game is not terrible guys, it is just mediocre and average.They probably really liked with the movie and thought the game would be amazing too. By the way, am I the only one sick and tired of seeing Nintendo at the top 3 spots every time? Nothing against Nintendo, but how about Microsoft or Sony for a change, they got good games worth buying too.

do they get a free copy of Avatar:the Game when they watch it in theaters?

avatar?................perhaps all the ausies has a 3DTV in home.

It's kinda stupid how many people are buying the avater game when it was terrible. Just shows ya that people buy whatever looks good on the cover. Ya know what? When the new Batman movie comes out, I should just throw together a piece of crap game and it'll sell big. lol

I wouldn't mind seeing the top ten sellers for individual consoles in all regions. Might put a stop to those false beliefs that third party games don't sell on Wii. @BigBacon87 A movie tie-in game outselling a game based on a new IP is not surprising at all. Remember that most game purchasers don't read reviews.

Avatar? Avatar? Those games got bad ratings!!

It will be interesting to see what Mass Effect 2 does to the charts in February.

I think it's funny that the GfK Australia doesn't actually release any sales figures ever, just the ranking of titles, they have on occasion in the past release some sales figures, but that sometimes results in ridicule of Australian gamers, I mean it wouldn't surprise me if Mario Kart took the #1 spot only having to sell some 5,000 copies.

Yea Bayonetta just didn't do it for me and I love games like that. I still think Ninja Gaiden 2 has done it the best so far on the 360. Dantes Inferno seemed promising from the demo I played. It might be better then Ninja Gaiden because it appears to have a pretty good story as well.

@irikron australians do like me

rofl! PC sales! Sims and Warcraft. ROFL! Man PC isn't doing well...

:!:

I think it's hilarious that Avatar is outselling Bayonetta. Darksiders getting love is just gravy. Bayonetta blows.
